For those of you who are interested, or would like to show other people (or even students) an example of this, you can use either the example in the video or create your own. For those who have trouble recalling terminology:
a/b = c
a is called the dividend
b is called the divisor
c is called the quotient
The rules for creating your own are fairly simple and straight forward:
The dividend must be two digits
The divisor must be single digit
The divisor must divide evenly into the dividend
The divisor must be less than the first digit of the dividend
The divisor must be less than or equal to the second digit of the dividend
The question is simpler to deal with if all the numbers are positive

This basically states that 25 divided by 5 is 14.
